Why Femi Kuti Did Not Attend The 2010 Grammy Awards by kokoye(m): 4:33pm On Feb 11, 2010 |
. . .I was even shocked to have been nominated again, because the first time I went to the awards during my first nomination, I walked out in annoyance. First I thought we were going to be televised, but it wasn't. They only televised the Madonna's, the Jay Z's and the Beyonce's of this world. . . . When I arrived at the red carpet, nobody came for me, my record company didn't come, I felt stupid and so I knew I could not win. I sacked my manager, a French man, and they sacked me too. The journed back home was very long. I felt sad. Since then I vowed never to attend the Grammy Awards again. My father never went for any awards, and where they presented him an award, he didn't go personally and when they brought the award to him, he would send them back with the award. . . http://www.lindaikeji..com/ |

Femi Kuti is talking out of ignorance jare. . . . .the Grammy Awards is divided into 2 parts: the 1st part is held during the day and it is here that most of the (lesser) awards are given out. . . .this part ain't even given live coverage on tv. The 2nd part which is the main show takes place at night and is packaged into a 3-hours live event on prime-time tv and it is here that the major awards are given. . . .this is the Grammy Tradition. . . .He shouldn't also forget that the Grammy is 1st and foremost an American event then a world event. |

^^^ how different is what you said different from his complaint? He is just confirming your point that it is not worth it going for the 1st part. simple. |
